    The ignorant and ignorant Chen Sangliang had never heard of the name Daocheng before, so when monk Daocheng sent someone to sneak out of the city to contact the Sui army, the cunning and suspicious Chen Sangliang even suspected that it was the Taiyuan army.  Fan Botong, the guard general of Jiexiu, used his treacherous plan to lure the enemy. He bribed Dao Cheng, a demon monk, to set a trap for him. The Yin Sui army provoked him to buy time for the main force of the Taiyuan army to deploy their defenses. In the end, they carefully analyzed the steps of the plan and found that the danger was very small.  , Chen Sangliang then asked Liu Shishan and Qiu Shishan to try their luck with three thousand soldiers with a try attitude.  (Read the latest chapter §ë§ë§ë. forced qi) This luck really happened to Liu Shishan and Qiu Shili. With the help of the believers in the defenders, the demon monk Daocheng whimsically made a rope ladder out of Buddha flags, which was enough to pull it up.  A group of Sui soldiers went to the city, and then the Sui soldiers attacked and killed the soldiers at the city gate. They opened the city gate and lowered the drawbridge to welcome the group into the city. Liu Shishan and Qiu Shili, who were very happy, led their troops into the city together and were hacked to death in the street fighting.  Fan Botong, a loyal minister of the Li family who refused to surrender, easily removed Jiexiu City, the nail stuck in the throat of the main force of the Sui army.  When the good news was sent back to the Sui army camp, Chen Sangliang, who was overjoyed, of course immediately ordered to summon the demon monk Daocheng and give him a heavy reward. As a result, the demon monk Daocheng was quite virtuous. Not only did he insist on declining Chen Sangliang's reward, he was also very humble.  He said to Chen Sangliang: "To His Highness the King of Tang Dynasty, the young monk should present the city not to covet His Highness's reward, but to obey the Buddha's decree and sacrifice his life to save Buddhist sentient beings. Fortunately, with the blessing of the Buddha, the young monk succeeded by luck and liberated the living beings of the three Jin Dynasties.  After Ku Luo has done his best, he will be able to explain something to the Buddha when he sees him in the future. "Why can't I understand what Master said?" Chen Sangliang was confused.  "Your Majesty may not know something." Demon Monk Daocheng said very honestly: "The Pseudo General Li Yuan claimed to be a descendant of Lao Tzu and Li Er. After his rebellion, he forcibly placed Lao Tzu above Confucius and demoted Buddhism to the third place.  Wait, countless monks in the Three Jin Dynasties suffered from it, and the young monks also suffered greatly. They were always worried that the lineage of Buddhism in China would be cut off at the hands of Li Ni.  The Buddha modeled the reincarnation of Chen Qingzhi, the beloved general of Emperor Wu of Liang. The white-robed soldiers he built with his own hands must recite sutras to save the enemy before going into battle. At night, he dreamed that the Buddha gave a decree to the young monk, saying that His Highness was the one who saved the Buddhist sect of the Three Jin Dynasties, and ordered the young monk to help His Highness with all his strength.  Capture Jiexiu and induce Li Yuan to obey, so the young monk followed the order. " Chen Sangliang, Li Jing, Yuan Tiangang and others looked at each other and smiled bitterly. They knew very well that this demon monk Daocheng must be thinking about something day and night.  That¡¯s why he dreamed that Liaotou ordered him to switch sides and help the Sui army. But now the demon monk Daocheng had made great contributions to the Sui army. Chen Sangliang was embarrassed to tell Daocheng that this was just his psychological effect, so he could only give the order to Daocheng.  The small temple where he was was re-consecrated and the golden body was rebuilt. Monk Daocheng then thanked him respectfully and left happily.  "I didn't expect that I could take advantage of this." This was the first thing Chen Sangliang said after the monk Daocheng left. He smiled bitterly and said to Li Jing, Yuan Tiangang and others: "I am just a monk, Taoist and Confucianist. The three religions are equal."  , the Buddhist disciples who were suppressed by Li Yuan are firmly on my side. If Li Yuan knew about it, he would be very angry when he found out about it. " "This also reminds us that we have to attack the city mentally." Li Jing.  What he saw was another level, and he said: "When Li Yuan raised his army, in order to win over people and buy fame, in addition to opening warehouses and providing relief, all common people over seventy years old were awarded casual officials, and all common people in the market who had skills were appointed.  The official appointment deceived some people of the three Jin Dynasties to live and die for him. The Li family brothers were able to occupy one side after Li Yuan's death, relying on the support of the people left by Li Yuan. If we can start at this link and use benevolent government.  To compete with the Li brothers for the support of the people and make the people of the Three Jin Dynasties serve me, even if the Li family has a strong city to defend and provide food and grass for, it will definitely be difficult to continue to establish a foothold in Taiyuan, the Three Jin Dynasty. " Chen Sangliang nodded.  Tiangang also agreed, and Feng Deyi, the famous flatterer over there, immediately offered his advice and suggested: "Your Highness, in this case, why don't our army issue an order saying that although the people of the Three Jin Dynasty were beguiled and threatened by Li Yuan's traitor, they were forced to obey the rebellion?"  , His behavior is pitiful, so all the casual officials canonized by Li Yuan's rebels will be recognized, and the inscriptions on the tombstones of dead casual officials do not need to be eradicated and destroyed. As long as the officers and soldiers of Li Yuan's rebel group surrendered voluntarily, they will be retained in their original posts and rewarded as appropriate.  , wouldn¡¯t it be possible to win back the hearts of the people of the three Jin Dynasties?¡± ¡°What a brilliant idea, we can implement it quickly!¡± Chen Sangliang was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, ¡°Anyway, those casual officials are only given official titles but no salary, grain, or rice.  Those from the Three Jin Dynasties like to engrave their official titles on their tombstones. It has nothing to do with us. This favor can be done! " "Your Highness, just put the names of Taiyuan, Lishi, Xihe, Yanmen and Loufan into five places.  Forget about exempting the counties from taxes and grain this year." Yuan Tiangang also suggested: "Anyway, even if we take these five counties, we won't be able to collect much tax money and grain this year, so we might as well just use the excuse of war.Tan Wu County, Your Highness, you sympathize with the innocent people of the five counties and decide to exempt these five counties from taxes, money and food this year. In this way, the people of the five counties will definitely hope that our army can defeat the Li brothers as soon as possible and free them from this year's taxes.  Suffering from money and food, they are even more devoted to our army.  " Chen Sangliang laughed loudly and applauded repeatedly. He immediately adopted the decision and ordered Feng Deyi to write a book on the spot and publish it as a memorandum to the five counties controlled by the Taiyuan Army. The result was just like that of Feng Deyi and Yuan Tiangang.  As expected, after the memorandum was first posted on the gate of Jiexiu City, the people of Jiexiu who belonged to Xihe County cheered loudly. Their hostility towards Chen Sangliang's army, which was still under the banner of the Sui Army, was greatly reduced. They had a good impression and became resistant to it.  The mentality is almost useless, and many Jiexiu people who do not know the truth are so confused that they offer immortality tablets to Chen Sangliang and pray to God to bless Chen Sangliang, the butcher and executioner whose hands are stained with the blood of the peasant rebels, to live a long life. May you have many blessings.  Shou removed the nail stuck in Jiexiu's throat, and Chen Sangliang, who had always been as timid as a mouse, finally had no scruples. On the tenth day of June the next day after the city was broken, he personally led the main force northward to Taiyuan, and here.  Before that, Liu Heitai had already led 5,000 partial troops to go north to attack Zhixi City in Xihe County. Qu Tutong also led the fifth-rate army to go north to attack Pingyao, Qixian, Taigu and other places. On the day when the main force of the Sui army went north,  Good news came in the afternoon, saying that Pingyao was successfully captured. After seeing Chen Sangliang's message of peace and security, Qixian County also chose to surrender to the Sui cavalry led by Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin in Kaicheng. The main force of the Sui army went north to Taiyuan.  The road was completely open. There was good news but also bad news. Still that night, Sui Jun Xizuo finally sent the news that Liu Wuzhou personally led the army south to help the Li brothers. He also reported the marriage between Liu Wuzhou and Li Er.  Chen Sangliang was not surprised when he heard the news. He snorted coldly: "As expected, Liu Wuzhou and the Li brothers were indeed adulterers and got together. They came just in time to have a decisive battle in Taiyuan.  It saves our army the trouble of crossing Hengshan Mountain.  " "Your Highness, the intelligence report sent by our army is that Liu Wuzhou personally led the main force, and the momentum is not trivial. It is best to be careful.  Confidential Secretary Sun Fujia poured some cold water on Chen Sangliang and suggested: "Li Shangshu once served as the magistrate of Mayi County, but he was forced to leave Mayi after Liu Wuzhou's rebellion.  You must know a lot about the situation. Why don't Your Highness invite Li Shangshu to discuss countermeasures together?  " Chen Sangliang thought it was reasonable when he heard it. When he just gave the order, Yuchi Jingde had already entered the account and reported that Li Jing and Yuan Tiangang had joined hands to ask for an audience. Chen Sangliang immediately ordered to summon Yuchi Jingde, who was also from Mayi.  He stayed in the tent. Then after Li Jing and Yuan Tiangang entered the tent, Chen Sangliang immediately smiled at Li Jing and said: "Uncle, good news, Liu Wuzhou, the man who forced you to escape alone, has come to give you a chance to take revenge.  , and also brought the main force of his Dingyang thief army.  " "I also heard about this good news, so I hurriedly came here to seize the opportunity.  Li Jing smiled and said: "Otherwise, if I arrive too late, Your Highness will expose Liu Wuzhou first, and I may never have the chance to settle old scores with Liu Wuzhou in my life."  " Chen Sangliang laughed loudly after hearing this, and then asked Li Jing and others to take a seat. Then, while handing the Sui Army's detailed investigation report to Li Jing and others for viewing, he said to Li Jing: "Uncle, my nephew has never seen Liu Wuzhou, so to him,  I don¡¯t know much about him, I just heard that he has some skills in fighting and is also very cunning. I asked my uncle for advice on his specific situation.  " "Your Highness, there's no need to be polite. I won't take your advice seriously.  "Li Jing said modestly, and then said: "Liu Wuzhou is from Jingcheng, Hejian. He was born into a wealthy family. He was famous for his bravery and friends with heroes when he was young. Later, he followed the imperial servant Yang Yichen and made some military exploits, and was awarded the title of feudal school captain.  In the tenth year of his reign, his family moved to Mayi, so he went to Mayi to serve as the captain of the Yingyang Prefecture. He was famous in Mayi for being generous and generous, and he was supported by all the people in Mayi.  I have indeed had a lot of contact with him, and it can be seen that he is a good general and commander, good at employing and recognizing people, and he is also good at winning over people.  " "Your Highness, Liu Wuzhou has also won over the last general.  "Yuchi Jingde interjected from the side and said: "At that time, the general was still forging in Shanyang. Because he was famous for being easy to fight against injustice, Liu Wuzhou took the initiative to come to his door. When he met, he was very generous with money. He even treated the general to a meal.  After drinking several times, he wanted the general to serve under his account.  However, the general's mother was still alive at that time, so she did not agree. Otherwise, the general might have left with him at that time.  " "Thankfully, Jingde, you didn't go with him. Otherwise, by this time, I would have had to worry about my head on the battlefield between the two armies.  "Chen Sangliang smiled and praised Yuchi Jingde, and then said: "Liu Wuzhou is generous, cunning and wise. He can win over people, employ people and recognize people. Doesn't this mean that he has no weaknesses?  " "No, Liu Wuzhou has a fatal weakness.  Li Jing said with a smile: "It is true that Liu Wuzhou was good at making friends with heroes and knights, and he was also good at winning over his subordinates. However, he was very fickle and cruel towards the officials, gentry and common people. He took everything he wanted.He robbed and killed at every turn, was not good at uniting the country gentlemen, and had many desperadoes under his command. His military discipline was corrupt, and the situation of local rape and robbery was very serious. Therefore, when he captured Yanmen County for a time, he was unable to gain a foothold, and soon fell into disgrace.  He was driven back to Mayi.  " "Then why can he persist in Mayi for so many years?  Chen Sangliang asked: "He is very supported by the people of Mayi?"  " "It's not that he has great support from Mayi, it's that all the people in Mayi who didn't support him were killed by him.  Li Jing smiled and said: "If it hadn't been for Your Highness, you severely weakened the Turkic Khanate in the Yanmen War, the late emperor split the Turkic Khanate into dozens of tribes, allowing him to rob the Turkic tribes and occupy the Salt Horse Road."  , and later, if our army had not seriously threatened the Li brothers so that they had no time to conquer Liu Wuzhou with all their strength, Liu Wuzhou would have been unable to stand in Mayi.  " After saying that, Li Jing quickly added, "But your Highness should not underestimate the enemy too much. Liu Wuzhou is unpopular with the people, but his military force is huge, and the number of cavalry is also very large. He must not be underestimated on the battlefield.  Now that he has formed an alliance and married with the Li brothers, and has also sent troops to help the Li brothers resist our army, he will definitely get the support of the Li brothers in food and grass to make up for his shortcomings in money and food. If we want to defeat him, we must face a hard battle.  A fierce battle.  " "Must we face a hard-fought battle?  " Chen Sangliang's smile seemed to disagree with his cousin's analysis, and he smiled extremely viciously. When Li Jing, Yuan Tiangang and others saw Chen Sangliang's wretched appearance, they immediately said to themselves: "Again  Come, it must be another plan to alienate each other, and maybe they will find ways to get Liu Wuzhou and the Li brothers to fight first!  " As expected, after laughing evilly, Chen Sangliang didn't even blink his triangular eyes, and immediately said with a smile: "Everyone, don't you realize that this is the time for our envoys to show off and deceive?  Liu Wu, Zhou Pifu, and the Li brothers are each on his own. Even if they temporarily tolerate each other in order to resist our army, there will definitely be conflicts and frictions between them. If there are conflicts, there will be dissatisfaction. If there is dissatisfaction, there will be opportunities for us?  You think it¡¯s time for Qian Xiangmin to take another hard trip?  "  " A sneeze!  Ah sneeze!  "Qian Xiangmin suddenly sneezed twice in his sleep and woke up. He subconsciously hugged the quilt tightly and whispered in a trembling voice: "Why did it suddenly become so cold?  It's like there's an evil spirit coming up from the ground?  Could it be that His Highness Prince Tang wants to send me as a messenger again?  "  It's not bad for Qian Xiangmin. After hearing Chen Sangliang's shameless words, Li Jing, Yuan Tiangang, Sun Fujia and others all burst into laughter and said that they were right, but they laughed  After finishing, Li Jing still said: "Your Highness, alienating Liu and Li's thief army is indeed a clever plan to defeat the thief, but I don't think it can be done immediately.  There are two reasons. One is that Liu Wuzhou sent troops to help the Li brothers resist our army. The key reason is that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold. Without the Li brothers to act as a barrier, it will be easy for our army to break through Liu Wuzhou. Liu Wuzhou will not fail to see this, so we are now  Just using the alienation tactic is not only doomed to be ineffective, it is also likely to be counterproductive, completely irritating Liu Wuzhou and making it more difficult for our army to have the opportunity to alienate the enemy coalition forces in the future.  "The second point is more critical. We haven't scared Liu Wuzhou yet."  "Li Jing added: "Liu Wuzhou is a violent man, and violent people must be arrogant and arrogant. The more our army humiliates and tolerates him, the more arrogant and aggressive he will be. He also says that we are really afraid of him. Next, he will not be as big as a lion.  He opened his mouth just to force our army to surrender by force.  For such a person, we can only get twice the result with half the effort by defeating his fear and subduing him, letting him know how powerful and powerful our army is, and making him feel timid and fearful.  " After thinking about it for a long time, Chen Sangliang nodded helplessly and said: "What my uncle said is absolutely true. Let's do this. Don't stir up discord for the time being. Let's fight hard with Liu Wuzhou and beat him.  Don't talk about it until you're afraid of being convinced.  " Yuan Tiangang, Yuchi Jingde and others, who had long been tired of Chen Sangliang's shameless estrangement, nodded together, saying that this was exactly the case. However, Li Jing saw the disappointment in Chen Sangliang's conscience and smiled again: "Your Highness, if you must  If you like to use tricks, there is no chance.  If nothing unexpected happens, the Taiyuan rebel army and the Liu Wuzhou rebel army will inevitably set up defenses at the Dongwo River (now the Xiaohe River) to block our army's progress. Crossing the river to attack our army would be too much of a loss.  If you like, Your Highness, you can use your best tactics to lure the enemy across the river for a decisive battle. This will make it much easier for us. Your Highness, your endless ingenious tactics will have a place to be used.  " "My cousin still knows me.  "Chen Sangliang clapped and laughed, and said shamelessly: "Every time I fight without some strategy, I feel itchy and feel uncomfortable all over. I just need to use a strategy when I have the opportunity. At least I don't have to worry about having nothing to do.  ¡± Laughing, Chen Sangliang couldn¡¯t wait to unfold the map of Taiyuan, and began to study the geography and topography of the Dongwo River, wondering what kind of evil and treacherous plot he could use.When the enemy crossed the river for a decisive battle, Yuan Tiangang, the world's leading geographer, also stepped forward to help.  Li Jing over there picked up the detailed report of the Sui army again and looked at it carefully. Then Li Jing was still a little stunned and said to himself: "Liu Wuzhou married his sister to Li Erlang? Liu Wuzhou's sister? He is the third one."  There are two sisters. The eldest sister was married to Yuan Junzhang before. I heard that one of the other two was married to Song Jingang last year. She should be the fourth and older one. So the one Li Erlang wants to marry should be  Liu Wuzhou's youngest sister, that little girl" After talking to himself, Li Jing immediately laughed out loud, and turned to Chen Sangliang and said, "Your Highness, I have good news for you.  The most hated Li Erlang is about to marry a tigress. If nothing goes wrong, the one he wants to marry should be Liu Wuzhou¡¯s youngest sister Liu Xiaomou. I have seen that little girl, she is so fierce and unruly.  "You deserve it!" Chen Sangliang gloated, and then he couldn't help but asked curiously: "Uncle, isn't that little sister Liu Wuzhou beautiful?" Li Jing hesitated.  He said truthfully: "When I last saw her more than three years ago, she seemed to be only twelve or thirteen years old. She was a beauty. She should be very beautiful now." "How come all the good cabbage was given to pigs?" Chen Sang  Liang Yi was not happy when he heard this and cursed: "Liu Wuzhou, you have a beautiful sister who is not good to marry, but you want to marry Li Erlang. It's like putting a flower in cow dung and pushing your sister into the fire pit! That sister Liu Wuzhou  I don¡¯t have a lot of eyes, so how could I fall in love with a lustful guy like Li Erlang? "" Chen Sangliang was really wrong about this. Although Li Er was very satisfied with Liu Wuzhou's sister Liu Xiaomou, he didn't know whether it was true or not.  Because of the incompatibility, Liu Xiaomou didn't have much feelings for Li Er. At the same time, in Liu Wuzhou's so-called imperial tent outside Taiyuan City, Liu Wuzhou, who deliberately wanted to win over Li Er, deliberately called Liu Xiaomou to the banquet and asked his sister to pour wine for the Li brothers.  He also took the opportunity to let Li Er and Liu Xiaomou get in touch with each other, but Liu Xiaomou always had a bad attitude towards Li Er. After pouring the wine, he sat next to Liu Wuzhou without looking at Li Er again, which made the banquet scene quite embarrassing.  In order to resolve the embarrassing situation, Li Er could only take the initiative to change the subject, and said to Liu Wuzhou, Song Jingang and others: "Brother, Brother Song, since you have also agreed to set up defenses at the Dongjuo River to resist the main force of the Chen thieves, then I must  One thing to remind you is that you must beware of Chen Yingliang¡¯s endless shameless tricks! Especially beware of his alienation and luring enemy tactics! If your army is slightly negligent, Chen Yingliang will definitely suffer a big loss!  "Of course." Liu Wuzhou replied casually, and added: "Brother-in-law, don't worry. I have heard about the traitor Chen Yingliang. He is the best at using tricks. If he really comes up with tricks, I will be able to see through them."  "Brother, you still underestimate the traitor Chen Yingliang." Li Er said with a bitter smile: "The traitor's tricks have reached the point where there are no traces of them. If you are careless, you will definitely fall into his trap.  "How can Thief Chen be so powerful?" Song Jingang, who had not yet suffered, asked curiously.  "It can only be more powerful than this!" Li Er smiled even more bitterly, and then reminded: "What Chen is best at is alienation and bribery. If what I predict is true, before the war begins, Chen will definitely have an envoy to contact your army.  , seizing the opportunity to provoke conflict between your army and our army with sweet words, I hope the two brothers will identify carefully at that time. It is best not to see Chen thief's envoys and not read Chen thief's letters, otherwise, your army and our army may suffer the same fate as Zhai.  Let's make the same mistake as Li Mi!" Liu Wuzhou, Song Jinjiang and others were doubtful, but Li Jiancheng nodded solemnly, rarely seriously agreeing with his second brother's opinion, but Liu Xiaomou couldn't listen anymore, curled his mouth and interrupted: "Cowardly  Like a rat! I don¡¯t believe that Thief Chen is so powerful, and I don¡¯t believe that he would definitely send someone to sow discord before the war, and he must not see his envoys to read his letters.¡± ¡°Xianmei, Thief Chen sent envoys to sow discord before the war.  I bet on this." Li Er smiled and said, "This is his habit and cannot be changed."
